Welcome to the somewhat newly revised chapter of Zoah's Dating Game, it's been awhile actually it's been a long time since I last updated. I hope no one waited for the continuation of this story, I'm already feeling bad enough for leaving it like this. The story wasn't worth waiting for, though I'm glad people liked it.

I'm replaying Chrono Cross as well, to relive the excitement from those years. The whole story is completely rewritten with some better description, and hopefully more humor. I still don't own Chrono Cross since the last time that it was mentioned two years ago.

ZOAH'S DATING GAME

The beautiful town of Termina, so peaceful until one day.

"Well if it isn't Zoah of the four Acacian Deva Dragoons, what can I do for you." The man greeted willing to shake hands. But Zoah denied his request, clearing his booming voice and got straight to the point. "MR. NIKKI'S MANAGER, I HAVE A PROPOSITION. I WANT YOU TO HEAR OUT."

The man thought about it for a minute and decided. "Well okay, but only if it'll make me money." The loud booming voice replied. "INDEED"

A week later

A crowd of people gathered around the Nikki stage. The stage was being remodeled, the workers continued this for what seemed hours. The huge crowd numbers only begun growing rapidly. The crowd gossiped about what could be planned for the stage. The sound of Nikki's door opening caught the ears of all the females in the area. The dream of seeing their beloved rock idol Nikki once again was replaced with the sight of his manager exiting his room.

"Go away, if you are curious about what we are doing, you should buy a ticket for tomorrow's show." With that said, the crowd unhappily left. "AREN'T WE FRIENDLY MR. NIKKI'S MANAGER." The manager turned to see the huge masked knight. "Will you stop calling me that, Zoah?"

"IF I KNEW YOUR NAME, I WOULD!" Zoah replied. "Okay, your maybe right. But what are we going to do about the contestants. If I book Nikki or the other dancers, my sell of posters will drop. Not to mention future ticket sells." The manager stated panicking.

"DO NOT WORRY, I HAVE IT COVERED AND THEN AFTER TOMORROW'S SHOW, MORE WILL COME." The giant behemoth replied leaving the center stage. "I sure hope so." The manger said walking back into his office. A few hours later, letters had been sent to a few of his friends. In the letters, it had told them of the following.

Dear friends,

You have all been invited to be guests on my new game show, which is currently located at Nikki's rock concert in Termina. The show will be watched by all of Termina to see. For those participating in the show, they will be prizes awarded to the winners. All other contestants will receive lovely parting gifts.

Hope to see you there.

Sincerely, ZOAH

The next day at Termina

On the day of the game show, many of the Chrono Cross characters came like the note stated. The first to arrive were the contestants from Arni, who were the three young teenagers. That of which we all know as Serge, Kid, and Leena.

"Why hello Zoah, so what's this game show of yours about?" asked Leena. As Serge yawned tiredly, the girls were too excited about the new show to let him sleep in as he did usual. Maybe if Kid hadn't came back, he could have ignored Leena. But making Leena or Kid mad was crazy, making them both mad was suicide.

"YOU'LL SOON FIND OUT, ENTER MIKI'S DRESSING ROOM FOR MAKE UP." Hearing this, the group from Arni left for their appointed dressing room. Zoah quickly grabbed Serge by the shoulder. "SORRY, BUT MIKI'S DRESSING ROOM ARE FOR THE FEMALES ONLY. YOU WILL ENTER THE ONE ON THE TOP OF THE STAGE."

Serge didn't replied, and did what he was told. The famous Chrono Trigger waited for what he would be plenty time for the rest to arrive, but everyone was scattered throughout their region of the world. But he would expect as least more males to come to Termina already.

The next closest group almost arriving had been the residents from the Viper Manor. "A game show, what is that moron thinking?" Karsh stated wondering if something was wrong with his giant friend or not.

"Like who knows, maybe like it going to be like fun?" Marcy called looking back at the annoyed Karsh. The second man sighed, his hand on his sword's handle. "Zoah has something up his sleeves, I can feel it, but what?" Glenn replied shortly after in his usually six sense attitude.

"I'm sure Marcy's right, Noah is probably doing this for fun." Riddel answered not thinking as much about it than her protectors. The four stopped upon reaching the town of Termina. 'Maybe she's right, but why do I have this strange feeling?' Glenn pondered slightly.

When they arrived, the show was about ready to start. All the contestants had been in the bottom dressing room except for Serge and Van who were on the top. The two boys wondered if they were the only males that showed up, until the door suddenly opened revealing the bunny rabbit demi-human.

"Janice why are you here?" Serge asked. "Well Zoah invited me to be on this game show." Janice replied simply.

"No, Serge means that this is a male dressing room." Van corrected. "Well, if this is a males dressing room why did Norris, Guile, and Pierre go into the females room?" Janice asked concerned. Both males went wide eyed after hearing this.

"Maybe, they could be females?" A voice outside the room replied. Turning towards the door, they found Lady Riddel entering the room. The thought of seeing Guile, Norris and Pierre in a dress was enough to traumatize the blue hair youths for live.

"Something is going on, that's for sure, but what?" Van wondered, ignoring the previous creepy pictures in his head.

"I don't know, but I'm going to find out." Serge answered back. But before Serge had his chance. The sound of music could be heard throughout the stage as he opened the door, but before he could leave a small figure quickly emerged as he held out his hands.

"I'm sorry, but Zoah needs your weapons. Don't worry, the others had their weapons taken away as well." The walking vegetable warrior Turnip stated. As the four threw them their weapons, as Turnip could only blankly stare at Janice.

"I still can't believe you fight with that!" Turnip exclaimed wide eyed, looking at his fellow vegetable abused by the uncaring demi-human. "Should I eat it instead!" Janice threatened as he quickly grabbed the carrot from her before running with the heavy weapons in hands as fast as his stubby legs could.

The start of the show began with Nikki playing his newly platinum hit The Wind, Stars, and Moon. The audience went wild after hearing the great song, even if the show sucked. They were probably satisfied just to hear Nikki play. After the beautiful song ended, the fans started to beg for more. But they were denied as it's host entered wearing a brand spanking new tuxedo, complete with his traditional knight helmet entered the scene.

"I AM ZOAH, WELCOME TO MY SHOW." His huge voice echoed throughout the stage. "MANY OF YOU ARE WONDERING, WHAT MY GAME SHOW IS ABOUT," Which was true, all though the audience only bought the tickets to hear Nikki play. "I'LL TELL YOU, IT IS ABOUT THE WORD LOVE." This caught the audience by surprise. "Love?" Many asked themselves out loud.

"THIS IS A SHOW WHERE, I WILL UNITE FOUR LUCKY CONTESTANTS WITH ONE OF THREE DIFFERENT BACHELORS." The audience had to admit, the idea it seem a little interesting to say the least. "THE NAME OF THIS GAME WILL BE CALLED THE DATING GAME."

The door to the top dressing room continued to still be open even after Turnip's mad haste. As the true plans of Zoah were now known. "Say what?" Everyone in the dressing room was now speechless.

"So that explains a few things." Riddel replied calmly careful listening.

"So that's what he was planning, I wonder who the four contestants are?" Janice exclaimed clueless, as the three couldn't help but give her a strange look. "Well Janice, we are." Serge admitted, her clueless-ness disappearing. "Say what?"

"I'll kill him!" Van swore forcing his hand into a fist. "No your not Van, because I'm going to beat you to it." Janice hissed in pure rage.

"TODAY ON THE DATING GAME, WE HAVE MANY BACHELORS FROM DIFFERENT GENDERS. SO GIVE A BIG HAND TO OUR FIRST FOUR BACHELORS SERGE, VAN, RIDDEL, AND JANICE." The crowd started to applauding causing the four to quickly develop stage fright.

"I'm not going out there!" Van stated scared. "I'm not going too!" Janice agreed at well. "Well someone has too?" Riddel called as the three turned towards Serge, the man was defeated. "Okay, I'll go first. But you all better come on after me." Serge announced before leaving. Upon walking towards the stage, the young Chrono Trigger was introduced to the people by the wonderful Zoah. "THIS IS SERGE, THE YOUNG MAN IS SEVENTEEN. THE BOY LIVES IN ARNI WITH HIS MOTHER, HIS BODY WEIGHT IS 128 LBS. HIS HEIGHT IS 5'7. HE HAS BLUE EYES, BLUE HAIR, AND HIS BANDANNA FOLLOWS HIS EVERYWHERE HE GOES."

Serge stood still trying to hold his anger by not lashing out at Zoah after hearing a few giggles escaped from girls in the front row, probably about living with his mother or his bandanna. "NOW SERGE, YOU'LL HAVE TO PICK FROM THESE THREE LOVELY WOMEN, WHY DON'T YOU TELL US ABOUT YOURSELVES LADIES?"

Serge stood looking at the three solid black curtains, each holding his destiny. While he had to stay stuck on this wooden stool, unable to escape the path that the crazy Zoah had laid before him.

"Hi Serge, I'm just a nice young girl, a little younger than you. I love watching the ocean, and still do." It didn't take Serge long to figure out who this really was. 'It's Leena.'

"Oi why hello mate, I be a young beautiful gal, and a thief, who love kicking arses." Serge couldn't believe this. 'Kid? What is she doing here, could she love me?'

"How are you Serge, did you miss moi?" This next one was more of a surprise to Serge than Kid. 'What? Now I'm really confused. How can Harle be here, I thought she died after the whole Time Devourer incident? This is bad, now I have to pick one of them, but who do I love?' Serge thought for a moment about his choices. 'Wait, I know.'

This wasn't much of a revising, but it's a little better. If you didn't catch it, I'll say it again. I'm very sorry. I didn't have time to continue this series, I've been busy writing things for school last year, and I tried writing a good chapter three without any success until now. I've just now have more time for writing, so I'm going to revise some of my horrible old stories. The second chapter hasn't been revised as well. That will be my third thing to do on my list.
